Answer:

v = 118.333333333

Explanation:

formula: V=a^2h/3

The area is the base edge (so 5)

The height is the line going up the triangle (14.2)

Fill in:

v = 5^2(14.2/3)

Solve:

exponent first: 5^2 = 25

v = 25 (14.2/3)

divide/find out fraction: 14.2/3 = 4.73333333333

v = 23 x 4.73333333333

multiply: 23 x 4.73333333333 = 118.333333333

v = 118.333333333

you can also write as v = 118.3 with a line like โ€œ-โ€œ over 3 to show the 3 is repeating:)
